The celebration features not only an exciting march down Frankfort, but also includes creative contests for the whole family.

The parade begins around 11:30 a.m. in front of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, 2822 Frankfort Avenue. Hundreds will travel down the historic thoroughfare all the way to Pope Street, bringing free candy and Easter cheer to thousands of children lining the route.
